    So many 50/50s this week.

    • Surprised to see Brisbane only just beat Melbourne, thought it’d be a thrashing.
    • Bulldogs should be able to get a big win over North, but it’ll be a good test to see where North’s really at.
    • Sydney are definitely favourites but Freo just have the vibe that they might cause an upset. I don’t think Freo are going to go deep in finals but I think on the right day they can stand up to the toughest teams.
    • GC/Collingwood is a coin toss, GC have been pretty solid at home though.
    • Crom/GWS is also kinda tricky, I think GWS will get it done but not by much.
    • I don’t trust Geelong not to fuck it up against Essendon, but anything could happen.
    • Neither St Kilda or Port look great at the moment, I can forsee a close but ultimately boring game playing out with Saints maybe sneaking a win, idk.
    • Carlton should pants Richmond.
    • Lastly, Hawks are still the favourites but I’m really hoping Eagles get up. It’s the best team we’ve fielded possibly in three years. Hawks are red hot right now but I just feel like they must be due to drop a game, they’ve just had the bye, and this is their longest travel all season. If we can grab a win I can forgive the Saints/North games. If we lose with this team, Simmo’s gonna be in hot water again.

      Just a heads up. Your comment took 7 days to federate. There is an ongoing issue between aussie.zone and lemmy.world. This reply will probably take 7 days to reach you.
